A Vespa Sei Giorni?

A real Vespa Sei Giorni  -> Vespa model history is one of the most sought-after collector's items. But what about one Vespa Six Days on yourself?

In 1951 the Vespa factory racing team “Piaggio Squadra Corse” caused a sensation during a race. The “Sei Giorni Internationale” took place from 18.-23. September 1951 in Varese, in the hinterland of Lake Maggiore / Italy. It was one of the toughest and most important competitions of its time, with 220 participants covering several hundred kilometers in rough terrain.

Race 6 giorni (6 days)

Sei Giorni = six days

This six-day reliability race is still known today as the “International Six Days” Enduro ”. The first race was in England in 1913 and demanded everything from the daring driver and the racing machine, especially when you consider that the Vespa has only been around for 5 years.

For this race only, Piaggio modified a small edition of 300 125cc Vespa models. The “Piaggio Squadra Corse” started with 10 of these vehicles. But what should the small Vespas be able to do against cross motorcycles specially built for this competition?

Surprisingly for everyone, the works team from Piaggio (drivers: Biasci, Cau, Crabs, Mazzoncini, Merlo, Nesti, Opesso, Riva, Romano, Vivaldi) won over full-blown off-road motorcycles on the Vespa: 9 of the 10 drivers received a gold medal. The Vespa 125 “Sei Giorni” also won the Italian Motorcycle Association's award for this achievement in 1951, in which three pilots Giuseppe Cau, Miro Riva and Bruno Romano stole the show with the Italian Vespa models.

Close-to-series racing machines

Visually, that was Vespa "Be Giorni" hardly distinguishable from the production model. For example, more tank volume, improved aerodynamics in the leg shield area and a larger engine cover were the main distinguishing features.

Vespa Six Days 2017

As we did in 2016 live from the two-wheeler fair EICMA report, there is from Piaggio, as a reminder of this legendary success, a special model, the Vespa Sei Giorni 300.

Vespa 300 Be Giorni 2017

Scooter Center Vespa SeiGiorni

Since this Eicma in 2016 there has been an idea for a new one Scooter Center Demonstrator that connects the modern automatic Vespa with the classic Vespa. Just as we do with our product range - ours Vespa shop you get everything for your Vespa - whether it's an old model or a new scooter!

We felt inspired by the new edition to implement our own idea of ​​a “modern” Vespa Sei Giorni. Alex Stroh (right) and Frank Winkel (left) are the people behind our new one Vespa SeiGiorni scooter center.

 

The creation of the SC SeiGiorni

Our new Vespa demonstrator began life as a normal, slightly damaged Vespa GTV. When it fell onto the street and then into our hands, she probably didn't realize what we were going to do with her.
In the beginning there was construction foam ... Viiieeeellll construction foam! But we got that under control quickly ...

Scooter Center Vespa SC Sei GiorniVespa modeling with construction foam

Filled construction foam?

But if you think now that we have just artfully filled the construction foam ...
Of course, that was only the template for Mathias Laubsch from the sheet metal works in Neuss http://www.blechwerk.com/ who has now masterfully implemented our template in BLECH .

 

Extensive sheet metal and painting work!

For the characteristic “nose” we built in a repair sheet that is normally used on a Vespa VNA-VNB. “Only” the indicators and the hole under the taillight were welded shut and then the SeiGiorni went to the painter ...

All plastic parts were given a silver base coat so that when you patinated you landed on “sheet metal” and not on disdainful plastic.

Then all sheet metal and plastic parts were first painted in the characteristic deep red primer that was used in the 50s, then a second primer in gray - before finally the red paint was applied, which is based on the racing paintwork of the first Piaggio racing models.

Personal sacrifice for a Vespa bench

The bench frame was "made up" in our workshop and then by the bench doctor Holger http://www.sitzbankdoktor.de/ to hand over. He sacrificed his old leather jacket and made the perfect bench for the SeiGiorni.

A racing wheel is a must!

The handlebar was exchanged for a Fehling M handlebar.

In order to obtain the desired patina, the files and sandpaper were allowed to work!

It is best to take a look at vespa live, there are many other small and large details.

A Vespa Be Giorni?

The Vespa Sei Giorni is among the most sought-after collectors items. A. Vespa Six Days, but what's it all about?

In 1951 the Vespa company's racing team “Piaggio Squadra Corse” gained massive attention during a race. The “Sei Giorni Internationale” took place from the 18th to the 23rd Septemper 1951 in Varese, in the hinterland of Lake Maggiore in Italy. It was one of the hardest and most important competitions of that time: 220 participants riding over several kilometers in an off-road environment.

Race 6 giorni (6 days)

Let Giorni = six days

Still today this six days reliability trial is known as “International Six Days Enduro”. The first race took place in England in 1913, a test of the limits of both daring racers and machines. And in 1951 the Vespa was just 5 years old!

For this race Piaggio modified a small part of three hundred 125cc Vespa models. The racing team “Piaggio Squadra Corse” participated with these ten scooters. But how could the small Vespas, specially built for this race, compete against motocross motorbikes?

Surprisingly the Piaggio company's racing team (racers: Biasci, Cau, Crabs, Mazzoncini, Merlo, Nesti, Opesso, Riva, Romano, Vivaldi) won the competition with their Vespas, outdoing the offroad motorbikes: 9 out of 10 racers got a gold medal . In 1951, for this top performance the Vespa 125 “Sei Giorni” also won the prize of the Italian motorcycling federation and with their Italian Vespa models the three racers Giuseppe Cau, Miro Riva and Bruno Romano stole the limelight from all other racers.

Near series racing scooters

The Vespa "Sei Giorni" was optically very similar to the series model. The main differences which were visible for instance more tank volume, improved aerodynamics of the leg shield and a bigger engine cover.

Vespa Six Days 2017

As we reported from the motorcycle show Eicma in 2016, in memory of this legendary success, Piaggio released a special edition: the Vespa Sei Giorni 300.

Vespa 300 Be Giorni 2017

Scooter Center's Vespa Sei Giorni

After the Eicma morotcycle show 2016, we got the idea of ​​creating a new Scooter Center demonstrator which represents a fusion of the automatic Vespa and the classic Vespa. Just like us Vespa shop where you can just find everything you need for your modern or vintage Vespa.

We were inspired by this new model and wanted to release our own “modern” Vespa Sei Giorni. Alex Stroh (right) and Frank Winkel (left) worked on the project of our new Scooter Center Vespa Six Days.

 

The genesis of the SC Sei Giorni          

Our new Vespa demonstrator was a normal, slightly accident-damaged Vespa GTV…

Scooter Center Vespa SC Sei GiorniVespa modeling with construction foam

Filled building foam?

The filled building foam was just a model for Mathias Laubsch from Blechwerk in Neuss, http://www.blechwerk.com/, who brilliantly transformed it into metal sheet.

 

Huge sheet metal and painting work!

For the typical “nose” we mounted a horn cover which is normally used on a Vespa VNA-VNB. We “just” welded the indicators and the hole under the tail light and Vespa Sei Giorni was brought to the painter ...

All plastic parts got a silver coating so that patinated could be made on “metal sheet” and not on bare plastic.

Then, all metal and plastic parts were painted with a deep red coating which was used in the 50s and then again with a second coating in gray before being painted eventually with the red varnish which recalls the typical coating of the first Piaggio race models.

Custom made Vespa seat

The seat frame was made in our workshop and given to the seat specialist Holger http://www.sitzbankdoktor.de/ who sacrificed his old leather jacket and made the perfect seat for the Sei Giorni.

Racing handleable!

The handle bar was replaced with an M-shaped handle bar by Fehling.

In order to get the patina effect we used files and sandpaper!
